Real Madrid had a horrible night in Saudi Arabia on Sunday, losing 5-2 to Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final – and for Eduardo Camavinga, it was an especially tough 90 minutes as he was one of the standout performers (in a bad place). way) for Los Blancos.
Camavinga only played the first half in Jeddah, but during that time, he was regularly beaten in duels before a foul on Gavi in the penalty area compounded his evening. His performance attracted a lot of negative attention, although in Real Madrid, they continue to keep the faith.
Ace for AS DiaryCarlo Ancelotti still supports Camavinga, to the extent that he will start if Real Madrid play another final in their next match. In the eyes of the Italian, a poor performance does little to dampen his thoughts on the talented midfielder.
Camavinga was a nailed starter for Real Madrid in recent weeks, but it will be interesting to see if he continues going forward – especially now that the return of David Alaba frees up Aurelien Tchouameni to return to play in midfield.
